Scotland tied the game in the third inning on a solo home run from Jose Fernandez.

The Catamounts waited until the sixth inning to break the tie and give Little the momentous win.

Caleb Taylor led off the inning with a single and then Clay Maholic drilled a double to puts runners at second and third setting the stage for Morgan Little.

Little dragged a ball through the infield scoring both runners making the score 3-1.

Thomas then singled to put two runners on, and Hayden Baldwin doubled to score Little.  Thomas then scored on a groundout from Koice Quintanilla.

 

In game two, Jake Arnold gave PSC another complete game effort on the mound to pick up the win to improve to 5-1.  Arnold scattered just five hits, walked one and struck out eight.
